Football's greatest - where does Lionel Messi rank?

Ronaldo not a phenomenal footballer? So there is one, and only one phenomenal footballer on the planet? -
Not a bad post at all. Some of things Pardew does annoy me (Jonas over Marv, the terrible set pieces) but in general he is nowhere near as terrible as people are saying. We've gone from pushing for a Champions League place to hoping we win a relegation 6-pointer the week after the champions batter us. It's a s**** state of affairs and the bloke who makes all of the decisions is to blame for it. I now instinctively look at the team below us to see who can catch us nowadays. I've written off top-half. I also know we'll go out of Europe shortly thanks to the surrender at home to Maritimo. Don't give me this s**** like it's ok and we're all over-reacting to a small blip. It's been f***ing awful, call a spade a f***ing spade ffs. Who was it who got us pushing for a Champions League place though? Was he clueless then, and just incredibly lucky? How shocking can we get until this excuse is worn out? Isn't it a valid point though? One amazing season and one poor half-season. Who's to say that the negative one is the real evidence? It was valid, then it got less valid and now it's the last card to play. He isn't helping his cause, when we week in and out never compete in games. We depend on Ben Arfa almost solely. Also he doesn't take any blame and when he's not addressing the problems, fans will eventually start to doubt.

5. It's a real possibility if this farce is going to continue. Reading will go down, QPR could turn it around but will also probably go down with them.

Does he sleep well at night with all these fraud excuses?

Agree. Our "attacking play" is a combination of aimlessly launching balls towards Ba/Cisse/Shola, Ba/Cisse/Shola meets the ball deep often causing loss of possession, Ben Arfa get the ball somewhere and magically creates something on his own, Santon (defender) gets into a shooting position eventually losing the ball or getting a shot blocked. That's it. I'm beyond bored watching us play. It's the same shit over and over again. Clueless and as static as you'll ever see a PL team. We really have NO idea. Having pedestrians in the team doesn't help but there aren't many options. The general passing and accuracy is shocking, and so is our strategy from start to finish, rooted in managerial hopelessness. I can't help but wonder what we do in training. I fear for players like Ben Arfa, Cabaye, Santon and Krul and I fear relegation. I have zero hope for January transfers and Pardew wont walk. Sad stuff.
